Historic Walking Tour Through Kanazawa! - Our family had an AMAZING private walking tour through Kanazawa with our guide Yasushi! He went through plenty of history for not only this area but for all of Japan. Our time during this tour was spaced out perfectly to see the Kenrouken Garden, Kanazawa Castle and the historic Higashi Chaya district for sweet treats, a quick lunch, and time to explore the local shops for gifts and souvenirs. Thank you for another great walking tour through Kanazawa and we highly recommend to anyone who loves Japanese History.

Enlightening, professional and engaging history tour in Kanazawa! - We went with Yusushi-San to a guided tour on Kanazawa with an emphasis about history. After going through previous parts Japan I had many questions and Yusushi-San was very helpful and informed, he answered them thoroughly and explained everything with a smile. I really enjoyed his answers and would recommend everyone who wants to learn more about the history of Kanazawa and Japan to take this tour, it was worth every Yen!
